One of the reasons people look forward to spring is because the warmer weather makes it possible to spend more time outside without freezing your tuchus off. But for many of us, we want to enjoy our porches or outdoor areas year-round. While we can't promise you won't have to clear out any snow and ice, getting an outdoor heater can make it possible to enjoy the fresh air without risking frostbite.
Right now, Walmart is holding a flash deal on this $240 Gymax Outdoor Tall Patio Heater for only $130.

If you have ever eaten al fresco between the months of September and May, you have probably experienced one of these heaters first hand, but if not, know that they seriously bring the heat.
"It was easy to put together," said one shopper. "Plus it gives off a lot of heat and it's easy to use."
This heater is able to put out up to 50,000 BTU, which can reach a max of up to 13 feet away, and if you want some more control over the direction of the heat, one customer said, "We purchased a reflector shield for it and it really helps direct the heat where you want it."
It has an incredibly sturdy build and has a base-fixer if you want to secure it to the ground. It also has wheels, which allow you to move it effortlessly when you need to. The good news is that you won't have to worry about taking it inside every time it rains — the material is rustproof and designed to hold up against the elements.
It is easy to use, with a control dial allowing you to adjust the temperature from low to high, and the stainless steel burner is resistant to all melting, so you can safely use it on any surface — even grass or wood.
This is a Flash Deal, so it won't be around for long. If you want to get your hands on this heater before the real cold front comes in, buy now to get the best price possible.
